   The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Florida in 2007 was $734.5 billion. Its GDP is the fourth largest economy in the United States. In 2010, it became the fourth largest exporter of trade goods. The major contributors to the state's gross output in 2007 were general services, financial services, trade, transportation and public utilities, manufacturing and construction respectively. Besides this, in terms of revenue generated, Florida's top five agricultural products are greenhouse and nursery products, oranges, cane for sugar, tomatoes, and cattle and calves. Behind all the fruits, vegetables and field crops, beef cattle and milk are Florida's leading livestock products. Poultry and egg production is important along with thoroughbred horses. Manufacturers add value to raw products by creating manufactured items. For example, cotton cloth becomes more valuable than a roll of cotton through manufacturing processes. Citrus fruit processing (fresh fruit juice, canned fruit juice, canned fruit) leads the way in the Florida manufacturing sector. Jellies, marmalades and frozen vegetables are processed, followed by coffee, dairy and seafood. Electrical equipment (military communications systems, broadcasting components and telephone equipment) manufacturing ranks second, behind the food processing industry. Other manufactured products include chemicals (fertilizer), printed material (books, newspapers) and scientific instruments.
